Rivals.com's recruiting analysts are putting their knowledge of top prospects to the test and going head-to-head in the Rivals.com Expert Draft for the Class of 2009. Follow the action pick-by-pick for all 22 rounds as Jeremy Crabtree, Mike Farrell, Jamie Newberg, Bobby Burton, Barry Every and Barton Simmons select their ultimate teams from the stars of tomorrow.

Pick: DT Chris Davenport, Mansfield, La.
Reason: An athletic defensive tackle that moves like a dancing bear is hard to find, but Davenport fills the bill here to go along with the threats at DE on the roster.

15. Barton Simmons

Pick: OT Nick Alajajian, Naples, Fla.
Reason: With elite tackles limited in this class, I'm scooping up Alajajian while he's still on the board.

16. Barry Every

Pick: DE Malliciah Goodman, Florence (S.C.) West Florence
Reason: Has all the tools and hasn't even come close to reaching his full potential; can play both WDE and SDE.

17. Mike Farrell

Pick: OL Garrett Porter, Odessa (Texas) Permian
Reason: A run on tackles has begun and there aren't many out there with Porter's smarts and mobility.

Pick: RB Christine Michael, Beaumont (Texas) West Brook
Reason: I want a back that can do it all, run, run block, pass block and be a threat as a receiver. This is the only one I believe that can do all those things.

29. Mike Farrell

Pick: QB Aaron Murray, Tampa (Fla.) Plant
Reason: Arguably the best pure college quarterback prospect in the country, I'll overlook size and take production under center.

30. Bobby Burton

Pick: OL D.J. Fluker, Foley, Ala.
Reason: Moving him to the O side of the ball where he was dominant at Alabama camp.

Pick: WR Randall Carroll, Los Angeles (Calif.) Cathedral
Reason: The next DeSean Jackson will be a nightmare for opposing teams in the slot.

33. Barry Every

Pick: TE Logan Thomas, Lynchburg (Va.) Brookville
Reason: There is a shortage of top-flight tight ends, and this guy is tall, fast and has peach basket-sized hands.

34. Barton Simmons

Pick: LB Nico Johnson, Andalusia, Ala.
Reason: I need to get defensive and Nico Johnson is the perfect linebacker to build a defense around.

35. Jeremy Crabtree

Pick: QB Russell Shepard, Houston (Texas) Cypress Ridge
Reason: Athletically he can kill you in a number of different ways, so expect Shepard to be used in a variety of ways, especially as a play-making dual-threat quarterback.

36. Jamie Newberg

Pick: SLB Jarvis Jones, Columbus (Ga.) Carver
Reason: He'll line up at SAM giving this team great athletic ability from the outside.

Round 7

37. Jamie Newberg

Pick: WLB Dorian Bell, Monroeville (Pa.) Gateway
Reason: See Jones with perhaps better speed. What an LB corps with this group - Jones, Bell and T'eo.

38. Jeremy Crabtree

Pick: CB Gabe Lynn, Jenks, Okla.
Reason: A fundamentally sound cornerback that also is a special teams terror.

39. Barton Simmons

Pick: DE Melvin Fellows, Garfield Heights, Ohio
Reason: Fellows is an offensive lineman's worst nightmare, great size and explosive at the point of attack.

40. Barry Every

Pick: S Craig Loston, Aldine (Texas) Eisenhower
Reason: He will be the general for my secondary with track-star speed, he may also return KO for my team.

Pick: RB Cierre Wood, Oxnard (Calif.) Santa Clara
Reason: Once he hits that hole it is off to the races, also has excellent hands out of backfield.

46. Barton Simmons

Pick: LB Jon Bostic, Wellington (Fla.) Palm Beach Central
Reason: Can play inside or outside for me as a linebacker with great athleticism.

47. Jeremy Crabtree

Pick: S Jamie Wood, Pickerington (Ohio) Central
Reason: The No. 1 player in Ohio is now off the board. Wood could play a ton of different spots – even some on offense as he averaged more than 20 yards a reception in 2007 – but he'll be the rangy safety that can also lock you down in coverage situations.

48. Jamie Newberg

Pick: DE Sam Montgomery, Greenwood, S.C.
Reason: Speedy edge rusher that has a great first step. New to the game with great upside.

Round 9

49. Jamie Newberg

Pick: OT Marcus Hall, Cleveland (Ohio) Glenville
Reason: Will protect the blindside of Barkley. One of the top left tackles in the nation.

50. Jeremy Crabtree

Pick: CB C.J. Barnett, Clayton (Ohio) Northmont
Reason: Tall, rangy cornerback can hang with more physical receivers with his size, but also has plenty of speed to keep up with the faster guys.

51. Barton Simmons

Pick: OL Eric Shrive, Scranton (Pa.) West Scranton
Reason: The last elite tackle on the board. At 6-foot-7, Shrive will make a perfect book end.

52. Barry Every

Pick: QB Richard Brehaut, Rancho Cucamonga (Calif.) Los Osos
Reason: The quarterback I've wanted all along. He can make all the throws and has very good accuracy.

53. Mike Farrell

Pick: DE Ryne Giddins, Seffner (Fla.) Armwood
Reason: I need a pass rusher and Giddins is one of the best in the country at getting after the quarterback.

54. Bobby Burton

Pick: ATH David Wilson, Danville (Va.) George Washington
Reason: Home run speed and never goes down easy.

Pick: WR Marlon Brown, Memphis (Tenn.) Harding Academy
Reason: Can't believe he's still on the board. He does things with the ball that 6-5 WRs shouldn't be able to do.

Round 11

61. Jamie Newberg

Pick: C John Martinez, Salt Lake City (Utah) Cottonwood
Reason: Combo guard/center that will start out at center. Smart and very athletic.

62. Jeremy Crabtree

Pick: S T.J. McDonald, Fresno (Calif.) Edison
Reason: He showed this summer that he's a physical defensive back and will be a great fit for strong safety in this defense. But he doesn't have trouble hanging with speedier receivers, either.

63. Barton Simmons

Pick: QB Tyrik Rollison, Sulphur Springs, Texas
Reason: Rarely will you see a quarterback with Rollison's athleticism that can throw that pretty of a deep ball. He's the perfect run-pass threat for my offense.

64. Barry Every

Pick: CB Janzen Jackson, Lake Charles (La.) Barbe
Reason: Has great ball skills and will knock your jock off, he will be a good fit with Loston. Jackson could be used as a corner or safety on my team.

65. Mike Farrell

Pick: CB Justin Green, Louisville (Ky.) Male
Reason: Green isn't as big as my other corner Kirkpatrick, but he's still got good size, is very smooth and athletic and gives me a great combo on the outside.

Pick: WR Alshon Jeffrey, St. Matthews (S.C.) Calhoun County
Reason: Big, strong and uses great body position with a strong set of hands. I'll go with a spread offense with three wideouts -- Carroll, Boyd and Jeffrey.

Pick: RB Jaamal Berry, Miami (Fla.) Palmetto
Reason: While Richardson is my every down, downhill back, Berry gives me that versatile all-purpose player that can catch the ball out of the backfield and add more speed at the skill positions.

71. Jeremy Crabtree

Pick: LB Chris Norman, Detroit (Mich.) Renaissance
Reason: Could also slide inside if he has to. Norman is one of the most physically gifted linebackers in the nation and sometimes flies under the radar.

72. Jamie Newberg

Pick: RB Edwin Baker, Oak Park, Mich.
Reason: Baker is a big time back that can do it all and never come off the field.

Round 13

73. Jamie Newberg

Pick: OT Anthony LaLota, Princeton (N.J.) Hun School
Reason: I think this kid is a top 50 prospect in America as an OT. If he switches to offense he could make a lot of money on Sundays.

74. Jeremy Crabtree

Pick: LB Ronnell Lewis, Dewar, Okla.
Reason: Ranks as one of the best overall athletes in the nation at linebacker and the second-best in closing speed, Lewis will be on the edge to cover the faster backs and players in the slot.

75. Barton Simmons

Pick: OL Deandre Coleman, Seattle (Wash.) Garfield
Reason: Massive lineman that can really move will play on the offensive side of the ball for me at guard.

76. Barry Every

Pick: OL Xavier Su'a Filo, Provo (Utah) Timpview
Reason: A mean, nasty player who could be an OT or OG.

Pick: RB David Oku, Midwest City (Okla.) Carl Albert
Reason: Oku gets tabbed as an all-purpose guy because he can hurt you in a number of different ways, but he also is a tough runner than can run between the tackles.

Pick: CB Brandon McGee, Lauderhill (Fla.) Plantation
Reason: Outstanding athlete with good size and excellent speed that projects very high at CB at the next level.

98. Jeremy Crabtree

Pick: OL Corey Linsley, Youngstown (Ohio) Boardman
Reason: Watching him pull and block downfield on tape was like watching a skill-position player run downfield, which makes him a perfect fit for this offense.

99. Barton Simmons

Pick: S Zeke Motta, Vero Beach, Fla.
Reason: Safety/linebacker hybrid. He is a huge hitter with great athleticism who can play in the box or defend the slot. Will play the rover position in my 4-2-5 defense.

Pick: WR Michael Bowman, Rossville (Ga.) Ridgeland
Reason: There may not be a wide receiver with more upside than Bowman. Huge target that is going to provide some major matchup problems for defensive backs.

107. Jeremy Crabtree

Pick: WR Kraig Appleton, East St. Louis, Ill.
Reason: With the spread offense, you need a steady receiver that can go over the middle with his physical ability and make the tough grab.

108. Jamie Newberg

Pick: DE Michael Brockers, Houston (Texas) Chavez
Reason: Big strongside defensive end that's a steal this late. Could grow into a tackle.

Pick: WR Terry Hawthorne, East St. Louis, Ill.
Reason: Putting Hawthorne in the slot and using him on reverses and trick plays like Missouri does with Jeremy Maclin will make him a home-run threat on every play.

111. Barton Simmons

Pick: CB Marcus Trice, Mesquite, Texas
Reason: Trice is a pure cover corner who has special teams value and loves to compete. Adds a ton of heart and personality to go with his elite athleticism.

112. Barry Every

Pick: LB Marquis Simmons, Compton (Calif.) Dominguez
Reason: The best athlete of this football family who may be the most underrated player in the Rivals250.

113. Mike Farrell

Pick: OL Brennan Williams, West Roxbury (Mass.) Catholic Memorial
Reason: Williams' versatility is attractive to me as he could play either guard slot or snap center.

114. Bobby Burton

Pick: DE Craig Drummond, Chicago (Ill.) Morgan Park
Reason: Will do equally well against zone read and drop-back teams.

Pick: DE Nick Kasa, Broomfield (Colo.) Legacy
Reason: Kasa will bat down passes, provide a pass rush and be stout against the run.

117. Barry Every

Pick: S Byron Moore, Harbor City (Calif.) Narbonne
Reason: Another tall corner with serious ball skills that will compliment Janzen Jackson. Wow, four DBs with serious ball skills. They will change the game.

118. Barton Simmons

Pick: DT Darrington Sentimore, Destrehan, La.
Reason: Complete my defensive line with one of the most athletic interior line prospects in the country and maybe one of the most underrated.

119. Jeremy Crabtree

Pick: WR Rolando Jefferson, Fresno (Calif.) Edison
Reason: With Appleton on one side and Jefferson on the other it's going to be impossible to double-team them.

120. Jamie Newberg

Pick: OG Stavion Lowe, Brownwood, Texas
Reason: Can play guard or tackle. Big and athletic and I love his versatility.

Round 21

121. Jamie Newberg

Pick: WR Nu'Keese Richardson, Pahokee, Fla.
Reason: A Santana Moss-type receiver with blazing speed and quickness. Will play the slot and mesh so nicely with Brown and Evans.

122. Jeremy Crabtree

Pick: C Jack Mewhort, Toledo (Ohio) St. John's
Reason: Mewhort showed this spring at camps, that he's got some really impressive footwork and that he can snap in the shotgun, which is key in this offense.

123. Barton Simmons

Pick: S Rod Woodson, Olive Branch, Miss.
Reason: An absolute enforcer from his safety position, Woodson might be the hardest hitter in the country and with a 44 inch vertical has the athleticism to boot.

124. Barry Every

Pick: WR Rodney Smith, Miami (Fla.) Archbishop Carroll
Reason: This future Seminole is a giant that looked great during agility drills at the Miami Nike Camp.

Pick: DT Lendell Buckner, Chicago (Ill.) Leo
Reason: I wanted some size in the middle and this is a great value pick.

129. Barry Every

Pick: WR Kenny Bell, Rayville, La.
Reason: He is the receiver on my team that will stretch the field with his speed.

130. Barton Simmons

Pick: C Patrick Lewis, LaPlace (La.) East St. John
Reason: Has a finisher's mentality and the mobility to be a dominant center. He also has some experience snapping the ball in high school.

131. Jeremy Crabtree

Pick: APB Rex Burkhead, Plano, Texas
Reason: With Shepard running the show at quarterback, we're going to run a spread offense and what better fit than a do it all type back like Burkhead.

132. Jamie Newberg

Pick: RB Lamar Miller, Miami (Fla.) Killian
Reason: A speed back playing against some of the toughest competition in America. Miller has good size and great vision and balance. How does he slide down to Mr. Irrelevant (last pick)?
